The finance manager of ABC corporation is analyzing firms policy regarding computers which are now being
leased on yearly basis on rental amounting to 1,08,000 per year. The computers can be bought for
5,00,000. The purchase would be financed by 16% and the loan is repayable in 4 equal annual installments.
On account of rapid technological progress in the computer industry, it is suggested that a 4-year economic
life should be used instead of a 10-year physical life. It is estimated that the computers would be sold for
2,00,000 at the end of 4 years.

XYZ ltd, a company based in India, manufactures very high quality modern furniture and sells to a
small number of retail outlets in India and Nepal. It is facing tough competition. Recent studies on
marketability of products have clearly indicated that customer is now more interested in variety and
choice rather than exclusivity and exceptional quality. Since the cost of quality wood in India is very
high, the company is reviewing the proposal for import of woods in bulk from Nepalese supplier.
The estimate of net Indian and Nepalese currency (NC) cash flows for this proposal is shown below:
